Your current leader (I refuse to claim him) doesn't seem much affected by the 61% of Americans opposing escalation, but if you would like to show your concern anyways there is a solidarity event on Saturday at 3pm at Austin City Hall. I am going if anyone wants to meet up beforehand or wants a ride down there.
